Split, Croatia




Split, Croatia

 The train from Zagreb wound its way out of the city past suburbs, farmland, hills,and into mountains. So really beautiful and as we went across the crest of the mountains we could see Alp-like mountains in the distance, like solid white ocean peaks in bumpy weather. It was a 6-hour ride and a great delight to see WATER! Adriatic Sea straight ahead.

Split is beautiful with marinas of yachts. The main feature of Split is that the entire tourist zone is actually built into the ruins of Diocletian's Palace. The original Roman stone walls make it romantic (especially at night). 

Tomorrow we ferry to Hvar... but here's some pixs...






In the warm evening folks sit in the old ruins and listen to the guitarist outside the Luxor hotel.
